Why Pick Our Charming Hanging Plants?

Hanging plants are amazing decorative pieces that boost your space’s beauty and relaxing atmosphere. More than offering a charming spectacle, these plants also have other benefits that can even help with one’s sense of peace and overall well-being. 

Great for Optimising Space

Hanging plants are those charming greenery and blooms placed in a structure that’s suspended from chains, ropes or other materials. Their use of vertical space makes it possible for people with compact areas to create a thriving garden space. They’re particularly ideal for city gardens where ground space is often limited.

Beautifies Any Garden

Hanging plants add height and exciting layers to garden designs, creating a lush, cascading effect. Popular Australian choices like ferns, string of pearls, and trailing succulents enhance visual interest with an assortment of textures and colours.

Reduces Heat

In Australia’s warm climate, hanging plants can provide natural shade and help cool outdoor areas by reducing direct sunlight and heat.

Improves Air Quality

Just like other types of plants, hanging plants improve air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. This process is known to create a fresher and more breathable environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mistletoe cactus, Devil’s Ivy, various ferns, and cascading succulents are great as hanging plants. Not only are gorgeous highlights in spaces like patios and balconies, they’re also quite resilient and add movement to spaces.

Hanging plants also thrive outdoors, bringing a sense of serenity and charm to your landscape. To begin, you’ll want to plant those with the greatest chances of flourishing in the great outdoors. Hardy hanging plants that can tolerate various conditions include begonias, petunias, and trailing ivy.

You might want to start with pothos and philodendrons since they’re among the best low-maintenance options for hanging baskets. They’re drought-tolerant, resilient, and don’t need full sun.

Hanging baskets grown indoors might not receive a lot of sunlight, but that’s okay for some hanging plants like ferns and English ivy. These plants prefer low light and shaded areas, which means limited sunlight won’t bother them.

It’s recommended to water hanging plants when the surface of the soil feels dry. Water once daily during hot, sunny days. Remember to apply water until it begins to flow out the bottom of the container.
